    Great lunch. Felt rushed - the tone was set upon checking in (with reservations) that our table had a reservation and hour later. I looked on line and there were still availability for reservations every hour after ours. When you are having several courses, the timeline is set by the server who takes our order and the kitchen. Our order was not taken promptly so that at up into one hour lunch. At the the one hour mark, we were not yet finished but there were other table empty and no one waiting at the door. 😡 food was good and have been wanting to eat here for quite sometime. Would I eat here again -yes. Would I make a reservation for lunch - yes but at 2 pm when you know there is no reservations coming in for your table after because I want to enjoy the food and not chow down like I was at a fast food joint.

    What an amazing experience at Loula’s for my best friend’s birthday! We had a big group of 10 and our experience was excellent from before we even sat down. The wonderful Sierra worked some magic to fit our big table in and then the incredible Paige took phenomenal care of us all night! The food and drinks were top notch – I already can’t wait to go back. Thank you Loula’s!

    Music in the restaurant is amazing, super vibes and the perfect volume. Cocktails are outstanding. Food is great as well. We had the chefs menu (55$ per person) and it came with 7 courses. The first 3 were great on their own but when put back to back it became very salty. (Anchovies on toast, olives, pickled vegetables, salad with salty vinaigrette). 3 dishes that are salt forward following each other was a little much. So the rest of the dishes were a welcome variation of flavour.
